NOTE: With the economy as it is, the HBD is struggling to
meet its meager operating expenses of approximately $3500

subscribed to the HBD sent in a mere $5.00, the HBD would
be able to easily meet its annual expenses, with room to
spare for next year. Please consider it.

Subject: Mead and Cider Presentations requested

The American Homebrewers Association is now accepting submissions for
educational seminars and poster presentations at the 2013 AHA National
Homebrewers Conference in Philadelphia, PA.

The conference theme, Brewing Up a Revolution, is based on Philadelphia
playing a large part in the American Revolution and being at the edge of
brewing revolutions throughout American history. This conference will present
ideas to keep the modern brewer at the forefront of homebrewing, mead-making,
and cider-making.

For more information, please review the presentation guidelines &
requirements on www.AHAconference.org before you submit a proposal.
